Would you like to reduce your suffering? Would you like freedom from destructive patterns of behavior? ------When we look deeply at ourselves...when we take the time to take care of ourselves with mindfulness and compassion, we begin to understand balance. I am committed to helping you learn how to stop living with self-sabotaging thoughts and behavior, to cultivate a life of emotional balance, deepen your connection with loved ones, resolve trauma and conflict, process grief and loss and become your best self.
I can help you deal with life's challenges including issues of: trauma (PTSD), addiction, depression, anxiety, relationship/ family conflict, anger management, transition to parenting, concerns of aging/ end of life, LGBTQ concerns, child and adolescent concerns.
Do you rush from obligation to appointment without ever feeling in the moment? Do you stop speaking mid-sentence - unable to finish your thoughts? I offer mindfulness training. Mindfulness training will help you balance your emotions, deal with your rushing thoughts, strengthen your boundaries, and be in the moment.
